tx-period-value: Specifies how long the duration of the transmission timeout timer is.
The value ranges from 10 to 120 in units of second and defaults to 30.
Note:
It is recommended to configure different handshake period value and handshake
timeout times according to the number of users:
When the number of users is 2048, the handshake period value should be no
smaller than 2 minutes, and the handshake timeout times should be no less than 3
times;
When the number of users is 1024, the handshake period value should be no
smaller than 1 minutes, and the handshake timeout times should be no less than 3
times
When the number of users is 512, the handshake period value should be no smaller
than 30 seconds, and the handshake timeout times should be no less than 2 times.
1.2.11 Enabling/Disabling Quiet-Period Timer
You can use the following commands to enable/disable a Quiet-Period timer of an
Authenticator (such as a H3C Series Switch). If an 802.1x user has not passed the
authentication, the Authenticator will keep quiet for a while (which is specified by dot1x
timer quiet-period command) before launching the authentication again. During the
Quiet Period, the Authenticator does not do anything related to 802.1x authentication.
Perform the following operations in system view to enable/disable a quiet-period timer:
Enable a quiet-period timer
Disable a quiet-period timer
By default, Quiet-Period timer is disabled.
1.2.12 Enabling/Disabling Handshake-Period Timer
You can use the following commands to enable/disable a handshake-period timer of an
Authenticator (such as a H3C series switch). With the handshake-period timer enabled,
after an 802.1x user passes the authentication, the Authenticator will send to the user
handshake requests at the interval specified by the timer to check whether the user is
online. If the Authenticator receives no response after sending the allowed maximum
number of handshake requests, it considers that the user is offline.
